This is something that for a long time I thought didn’t go into play. But yesterday I realized that many people think it is cool, or even amazing about what I am doing with this website. So I thought to myself why not exploit the fact that I am 12. (1 1/2 months until I am 13!) Why not show my readers and visitors the stuff that I do at a young age? This is a good idea, maybe even a great one, but how in hell do you accomplish this?

1. Keywords, in every keyword have it somewhere say young, or kid, and money. This will help my search engine rankings for different key words.

2. Social bookmarking, like twitter, which I just started. (go follow me here!)  Also Blog Catalog, and Digg drive moderate amounts of traffic to the site. Hopefully now that I am going to be using my age more, more traffic will come from Blog Catalog. (Age doesn’t matter as much on Digg because people are just looking for quality articles.)

3. Directories, submitting to hundreds of hundreds of directories may not bring you traffic, but it will build back links. Another thing Directories do is expose you blog, and help you with various keywords. Technorati is a blog directory that helps drive traffic to the site, you can become a fan of my blog on Technorati here.

4. Forums, on all forums you have a signature. In my signature I have a link to the site. But instead of just my link I am going to have a link that says “A 12 year olds quest to becoming the money makin guru” Hopefully something like this will drive more traffic to the site.

5. Advertising, when I first drew out my ad I just wanted it to say MoneyMakinGuru.com in cool font. Now, after some re-thinking with my grandfather and father I have drawn up an ad that is catchy and interesting that again draws peoples attention because of my age. The main idea of the ad is now my age, then the site. Not the site, and then my age. Doing something like this will surely draw more attention then just having the blog url.

You guys should be looking out for me. Because I am coming, full speed, and I am not going to slow down any time soon.
